Abstract
Described are improved systems, computer program products, and methods for efficiently accessing an ordered sequence in a clustered database environment. The approach includes receiving multiple requests for ordered sequence numbers from a plurality of entities. These multiple entries respectively pertaining to the multiple requests may be stored in a data structure. An entry may be selected from the multiple entries in the data structure; and one or more ordered sequence numbers may be provided to a requesting entity for the entry with a distributed lock mechanism based at least in part upon sequence number reservation or a local entity priority.
